CMC Diecast 1:18 Ferrari Testa Rossa
CMC Diecast 1:18 Ferrari Testa Rossa's - Limited Editions available in two Versions; 1) May we introduce “Lucybelle” to you? That is the name by which the Testa Rossa with the chassis number 0732 first came to be known in its good old days. The owner Ed Hugus was an American; who decided to have the car painted in American racing white with double blue stripes. Admittedly; that appearance was unusual for a Ferrari. But take a look for yourself: Isn’t it strikingly beautiful? This is why we build a high-end miniature replica after it; limited to 5;000 pieces worldwide. One of Lucybelle’s racing highlights was a 7th rank at the famous 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1958; where it had the starting number 22. The drivers Ed Hugus and Ernie Erickson won their spot by competing triumphantly
against a large number of tough competitors. Our model represents the current status of the car. Version 2) Chassis No. 0714 went into the manufacturing of the second Testa Rossa; which was earmarked for Mr. Piere Drogo; a gentleman from Venezuela. In early December 1957; the new car was delivered to him in Modena; Italy. He intended to pilot it in as many races as possible. One of the modifications he made was to install an additional air inlet underneath the doors so as to improve the cooling of the rear wheel drum brakes. His first race took place in Buenos Aires; Argentina in January 1958. Since then; more than half a century has passed. In the course of time; Testa Rossa (meaning “Red Head” in English) became a most successful and best-known Ferrari model of all time. Perfectly
restored and painted in deep black with a flamboyant red/white border on its nose; the car with the starting No. DM124 was offered at “Leggenda e Passione;” an auction that took place in Maranello; Italy in May 2009. The bidding went as high as 9.02 million Euros; and the car changed hands. Is there better proof that the fascination with Testa Rossa is still going strong? ****PLEASE EMAIL OR RING TO CHECK AVAILABILITY. TEL: 0870 241 2829.****
